    I was checking the interior lights in the truck and when I opened the dome light cap I took that bulb out and realized none of the other lights like the map lights and vanity lights are working now. I even put the bulb back in and they still aren't working. If anyone knows how to fix this please help.

    This is the stock bulb and not a led? The halogen festoon bulb should work on either orientation. You check the dome light fuse?

    Pull the fuse and look at it. You can visually see a break in the fuse 99% of the time. If you have a spare swap it out. If not maybe switch another 7.5a fuse for a minute to see if lights come back.

    I think the same happened to me. Just swapped the vanity mirror bulbs to LED and now dome, map and vanity lights are not working. What’s the solution? Any help is appreciated.

    Edit: never mind. Figured it out. Swapped the dome light fuse and everything is working.
